The Las Colinas Residences are spread across the resort's hillsides, with two and three-bedroom apartments plus three and four-bedroom villas. The big win for groups is space, you're not tripping over each other's luggage and golf bags, and the self-catering setup keeps things flexible if you've got early tee times one day and a lazy breakfast the next. That flexibility matters more than you'd think when you're coordinating four or five golfers with different body clocks and post-round routines.
Expect modern, well-equipped interiors with full kitchens, air conditioning, WiFi, international TV channels and dedicated parking, which is genuinely useful when you're hauling clubs and kit. It's the sort of setup that works just as well for a quick golf break as it does for a longer stay, especially if you're mixing golf with beach days and exploring the local area. The apartments suit couples or smaller groups nicely, while the villas give you enough room to spread out if you're travelling with family or a larger society group who want communal space in the evenings without being on top of each other.
On site, there's plenty to keep non-golfers and tired golfers happy. UNiK Café runs from breakfast through to dinner with an international menu, there's a well-equipped gym, tennis courts for a hit and bike hire for getting out into the surrounding countryside. The resort also offers access to a beach club when you fancy swapping fairways for the coast, though it's worth checking what's included for residence guests at the time you travel, as access can be seasonal and may vary depending on your booking dates.
If you're travelling as a society or a mixed-ability group, the combination of high-end accommodation and a genuinely strong course makes Las Colinas a smart base, especially for anyone who wants quality golf without the big-resort feel or the crowds that come with some of the better-known Costa del Sol complexes. The residences are close enough to the clubhouse and practice facilities that you're not spending half your morning in a buggy or shuttle, but far enough up the hillside that you get views and a bit of peace when you're done for the day.
For golfers who want a top-class test, modern self-catering comfort and a quieter patch of Spain that still delivers on course quality and convenience, Las Colinas ticks a lot of boxes.
